I’m an early career librarian working on Open Education initiatives in Canada. I’m all about asking those tough questions, because working and collaborating in the Open is better when equity and inclusivity are top of mind. Come talk to me about scholarly communications librarianship, being an early career academic, cross-institutional collaborations, and cats!
